Masculine Cards

Good morning, Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today!

The day after tomorrow in Poland we celebrate Father’s Day – and for that occasion I have made some masculine cards 🙂 Even though I’m the only woman in my house, I still find masculine cards a bit difficult, it always takes me more time to make one than with romantic flowery cards 😉 But with fantastic Vintage Romance images of handsome dudes the task is much easier 😉

I decided to use up some leftovers of the Home for the Holidays collection and made these two cards:

The first card is more universal, as the stamped sentiment says “Best wishes” – and so it could be presented on Father’s Day too 😉

I layered two papers in the background and matted the central image with a die-cut gear border and hand-cut tags:

Then I added a metal charm, some vintage brads and acrylic gems to give the card more character and colour 🙂

The other card is aa birthday card and a vintage car image as the central piece.

Then I literally used up the smallest bits and scraps by punching squares and making a patchwork background 🙂

I also added some chipboard gears and a metal charm on a piece of plaid ribbon:

How do you like them? 🙂

  • Fabulous male cards here, and great with some new inspiration for exactly these, as they´re always the hardest to make, but you´ve made some really amazing and beautiful ones here.
